Even if nobody reads this thread, I'd like to post snippets or songs that were reworked and/or sampled (decades) later by other artists.

One example, "Regulate" by Warren G
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiyY8C5fdK4

is heavily based on Michael McDonald's "I keep forgetting":

Rob D - Clubbed to death;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RudpFzGLbo

#side branch
{
which is way too over used from fucking toilet paper ads to game show music. I thought the guy had sampled it and just collated it, which would be fair enough. I tried searching for the original piano concerto - but he actually composed it based on Elgar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=La727Hbly8Q so respect.

The Skull Snaps - It's a new day;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0_uMSd4xOM

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mn3f_ecI3U

which i will quote youtube;
Crazy how many hip hop tracks this fathered.

that enough for right now. 8)

this is website i keep coming over, err across;
http://www.whosampled.com/ does your youtube for you.

we could post a track and either spot the sample(s) or who sampled it?
Might be a bit chaotic?
now that a bunch of obvious ones are out of the way,

heres another, slightly less obvious; but he's well sampled, as well as being amazing musician;

Bo Hansson -Lothlorien
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzesBe48Gh4

as used in,
Peanut Butter Wolf - breaks 'em down
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z1kXLi0Tn0

^ Yeah, the problem is that it also includes 'covers' or songs that sound "similar":

http://www.whosampled.com/sample/205/Th ... e-Sixteen/

and it even says "sample", though it's not.

and this gem for the bass.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE0AeWdpjFg

arhhhg stop me !!

Sourcing hip-hop and electronica alone, you'd probably find millions of examples....

...... some shamelessly blatant, like this track, which basically rips-off Miles Davis - Joshua (1963)....

...... and some that mesh so well they you feel they were made for each other, like this stunning house track which borrows from Roy Ayers Ubiquity - He's a Superstar (1971) and The Soul Children & Jesse Jackson - I Don't Know What This World Is Coming To (1972).

how bout Kid Rock

Warren Zevon and Lynyrd Skynyrd
